From June 8th to June 11th, a portion of the proceeds from all film rentals will go to benefit the Trevor Project, the leading national organization providing crisis intervention and suicide prevention services to LGBTQ+ young people from the ages of 13 to 24.
Now available to rent and purchase on iTunes, Speech and Debate follows a group of three friends as they resurrect a failing debate club in order to make their own voices heard and features both biting humor and Broadway-worthy musical moments.
